Descendant Membership is available to
Bowne or Parsons descendants, a descendant of a
related family such as the Underhills, Lawrences,
Townsends, Minturns, Osgoods or Thornes;
Signers of the Flushing Remonstrance; Original
patentees of the town of Vlissingen/Flushing; and
Founders of the Bowne House Historical Society.

Membership will be open to
anyone with a collateral connection. A brief pedigree
has been prepared and has yet to be fully verified. An
additional level of membership will be provided for
supporting/regular members. The discussion thus far is
to only allow life membership for a set price to be
determined.

Membership is available through right of
descent from Nicolas Martiau through daughters
Elizabeth, Mary or Sarah.
Elizabeth married Col. George Reade. Mary married Col.
John Scar(s)brook. Sarah married Capt. William Fuller.
